Hearkening back to the variety shows of the 60s & 70s – in the style of The Carol Burnett Show, The Flip Wilson Show, and The Cher Show – The David Drumgold Variety show features good old-fashioned talent, cheer, and the escapism of a good time.

This special holiday edition will feature:

* JULIA VAN CARTIER-ROTHSCHILD (Drag Queen) was the winner of New York’s Next Top Drag Queen at the Metropolitan Room in 2018 – and her Christmas extravaganza, “We Three Queens,” along with Ruby Powers and Strawberry Fields, is legendary.
